All-Star Families,

As we turn the calendar to November, it is time to think about winter weather. Research shows, and every educator knows, that fresh air and physical activity go hand-in-hand with academic readiness and success. While we are always watching temperatures and outside campus conditions, we make every effort to have kids go outside for play. Please remind and help your child to dress for the weather. If he/she needs any winter clothing, please let us know. We have items in our clothing bank gifted to us by generous donors. You can find inclement weather procedures here, and a video explaining how SPS decides on weather delays or closures. Additionally, with the darker days, we ask that drivers use extra caution to make sure our All-Stars arrive safely at school and at home.

Next Thursday, November 9 will be our annual Veterans Day Assembly at 9:30 AM in the gym. We thank our All-Star veterans for their service and sacrifice and invite them to join us for this event. We also encourage them to complete an All-Star Veteran form below to add to our Wall of Honor outside the office. There is no school on Friday, November 10 in honor of our veterans.

Thank you for sharing your greatest gift with us…your child!

Beth Nye

Adams Principal

PurposeFull People

Our Character Strong SEL (social emotional learning) curriculum helps students build skills in three areas: Be Kind, Be Strong, Be Well. In November students will Be Well and focus on Gratitude. Gratitude is choosing to appreciate the people and things in our lives. Students will participate in classroom lessons and practice gratitude throughout the month.

Thank you for joining us for our annual PTG Fall Festival and Trunk or Treat.

Both Adams staff and families worked together to make this a success. Fun was had by all!

Remember to Vote by November 7
